House of Fire & Blood – Episode 46 “Muscled Like Ned Stark’s Fantasy”

Share This Post

What if George R. R. Martin’s Fire and Blood was written more like HBO’s House of the Dragon? Caroline and Gretchen analyze Martin’s work from this perspective and search for hidden stories in the text.

This week Gretchen and Caroline continue their analysis with a The Dying of the Dragons: A Son for a Son Part 1. The EVHUL Blacks begin the war with very violent diplomacy around Westeros. Jacaerys goes North and makes BFFs with Craigen Stark, while Daemon has a perfectly normal time at Harrenhal. How evil!
